I♥CHRISTMAS TIME
sooo hi bloggers, been really nice being back in my hometown (although working 30 hours a week at wetherspoons wasn't quite my idea of fun!!) Next week I am going to try and finish my illustration for a competition which is due in- in January! So hopefully I'll get my act together and stop watching so much Ugly Betty!!!!!!!!!

two days to go....

I actually cannot believe how fast these past five or so weeks have gone! I am starting to get pre-hand in nervous-ness but I am quite on track. I have a few pages to finish in my design manual and I need to add a few bits to my drape and then do a MAJOR press of the dress. then I'm DONE (minus getting my manual bound together of course) BRING ON WEDNESDAY and christmas holidays! (I need a break! hah)

Design Manual....

Deadline is most certainly looming over my worried mind!....with three days to go, the pace of work is picking up. I am veryyy near to finishing, I just have little bits and pieces to do, for example I need to add zip into dress, take photos and then add to my manual. I had a big panic yesterday thinking I haven't done enough but I am now well on my way and pretty prepared for Wednesdays deadline...

snow is falling all around usss.



Wow so Bournemouth is completely covered in snow! is actually a proper winter world!!! feeling very chritmassy! Was supposed to be staying at uni late today to get my garment finished, but alas the snow has stopped this, however I did go in and manage to get the facing into the neck and back.

Yesterday was slightly stressful, started my final garment and sewed it all together and then found out something was wrong within the back making it rise up lots. After un-picking the top half from the bottom me and Jodie managed to work out what was wrong and I have now corrected this.

TO DO:
Garment-
  • Facings
  • Re-sew top half to bottom
  • belt
  • zip
  • press
  • take photos

I WILL GET THIS ALL DONE BEFORE HAND IN
